John Brodie--49er Legend


 John Brodie, one of the last of what I would consider, the old school NFL quarterbacks has died.   He was 90.

Brodie was quarterback of the team when I started following football in the late 60s, because they were no Seahawks at the time, the team was shown often.  

Brodie had a 17-year career, all with the 49ers.  After being drafted out of Stanford, where he was also an outstanding golfer. 

In 2009, Brodie was inducted into the inaugural class of the 49ers Hall of Fame.
